So I guess this:

Actually the NRA was founded by northerners during the Jim Crow era in the south to assist former slaves in training and arming themselves. It is the oldest civil rights organization in the US.
Wasn't the result of a petulant 3-year-old who whines all the time because they want something other people have.

Here's a clue: you were wrong. Nothing in your statement had any basis in truth. You corrected me with a total fabrication that even the NRA's own website doesn't mention.

And - the oldest civil rights organization in the USA was the American Colonization Society, founded in 1816 as an instrumental branch of the abolitionist movement. The NRA wasn't founded until 55 years later, in 1871.

Sadly - the NRA no longer stands for what it was founded to stand for, it no longer supports what it was founded to support, and it no longer acts in the best interests of its members. Instead, it steals from them. Which is the purpose of the lawsuit against them - to determine damages and enforce consequences.
